This has been going on for days. Worthless. I was soooooo close to breaking open my Sony reader instead of returning it and now this is all but convincing me that I will have nothing but trouble with the whole thing.


How irritating. If I don't get a fix for this tonight this device will be going back tomorrow and I won't look at Sony again.

I can tell you what happened to me not too long ago:

Apparently, my bank had been purchased by another bank and went through a name change. My debit card had not expired. Also, apparently with my bank, when there are no deposits for about 6 months (if my memory is correct on this point), they freeze the account.

When I went to the U.S. recently, they fixed the problem for me and issued me a new debit card with the new bank's name.

While all this was going on, I was able to log onto my Sony account, look at books, etc. - I just couldn't purchase anything.
